Elliptic functions are known to appear in many problems, applied and theoretical. However, a lesser known application is in the study of exact solutions to Einstein's gravitational field equations in a Friedmann-Robertson-Lemaitre-Walker (FRLW) cosmology. We will show explicitly how Jacobi and Weierstrass elliptic functions arise in this context, and will additionally show connections with theta functions.
